sH. GOT HUSBAND EASILY, But SHE NOW WANTS
TO GET RID OF HIN.
A telegram TO the New York Sun from Carbon
dale, Ill, october "a. says: In May, 1884, during
the strawberry season here, Miss Petina N. Hubs
pretty young woman living In Desoto was visit
ing an aunt living at Mill Creek, in Union County
Miss Hubbs picked box OF Strawberries one day.
on which she wrote:
This DO. contains the sweetest berries shipped this
my own hands. PKrINA HUBBs.
The box, with Others, was shipped in due time
70 chicago, and nothing more was thought OF the
received letter from young gentleman in Be-
s sl. kansas sa signing IS his name William
she had written, and also requested the pr1vt-
lega OF corresponding with the lady. The request
gagged In a very Interesting correspondence. In
The course OF time the young man made declara-
ton of love, and the result was finally q marriage
The union was happy one for q year, notwith-
standing the fact that young Busby was poor
man, working as day laborer TO support himself
and wife. AT the END OF the year the young couple
were overJoyed when it was learned that Busby
had fallen heir TO 100000, LETT him by an uncle In
70 scotland TO obtain his inheritance IL was agreed
by husband and wiIe that Mrs. Busby should re-
turn TO Desoto 70 visit her widowed mother, and
there await the return OF her husband
Months passed, during which time Busby had
returned from scotland TO his pralrie home being
In actual possession OF over SIS COO which he was
lavishly spending In Beloit. The wife learned OF
her husbands safe return, and wrote numerous
letters 70 him, TO which she received no answer
Doubling that he had returned and that he had
really come into possession Of such fortune, she
wrote 70 the postmaster at Beloit for information
who Immediately assured her OF her husbands
good fortune, OF his presence In that town, and
added that all letters she had addressed him had
been promptly delivered to Busby In person.
For the first time the former strawberry picker
began " doubt the genuineneSs OF her husbands
ndety since the acquisition OF rcnes. Her attor-
neys say the lady has discovered other startling
and disagreeabie things concerning her husband,
ana that she has taken steps TO secure divorce.

The Judicial Circuits and Ohancery Divi.
SInuS


ED. CITIzEN-I have noticed in
several newspapers severe CRITICS ms
of the action of the Legislature IN
the matter Of the arrangement of
the judicial circuits, chancery divi-
sions and the time for holding the
courts therein.
AS | was one Of the actors in
this legislation 1t may not be i'm
proper that l say few words in
explanation If not in apology.
The act was passed at the extra
session of 1885.
1t will be rememb ered that there
was a feeling or belief among e
people generally that we had ,ao
many judges and courts for TIE
business coming before them, and
therefore, heavy, needless expenses
were incurred. In response to this
sentiment, as | suppose, Gov. Bate,
IN his call for the extra session, in
cluded in his specially stated legis
lative business-"To red;strict The
state of Tennessee into judicia. cir
cults and chancery divisions, both
or either, or to consolidate the
same" When the legislature as
sembled this portion of the COVER
nor's proclamation was referred to
joint committee to consider and
report. They reported the bill now
complained of. Its defects were
certainly seen and understood by
members Oh and off the com mittee
But it lessened the number oil
Judges two and chancellors- one
aud yet, we believed, retained 8
number sufficient to discharge the
business; made saving of seven
thousand and five hundred dollars
per annum in salaries-and for the
judicial term of eight years the sun
of sixty thousand dollars. Farther
as the act was not 10 take effect til
September, 1886, ole term only Of
the courts would be held before the
meeting of the regular session wher
the detects and Inconvenience now
complained of could be remeded
We thought it best to accept ths
bill as it was, than endanger thG
main purpose by seeking to please
and accommodate all parties will
this, that and the other county il
his or their district. Let me ado
another thing that should be con-
sidered. Twenty days (including
Sundays the constitutional limit
for an extra session, with many i'm
/ portant measures to consider, does
not afford much time for perfectine
details. Subject matter first, de-
fects cnred afterwards.

The Pulaski citizen. [volume] (Pulaski, Tenn.) 1866-current, 1887-01-06


Mr.. Wattsrson positively denies
that the south is On a boom and ad-
vises her to relinquish her attempts
to 60 into manufacturing and go
back to cotton raising as the most
profitable employment she can en-
gage in. He is beside himself with
rage because the events transporting
disprove the doctrines he has been
preaching and he rants and fumes
because there is 8 revolution of be-
lief with respect to tariff and pro-
lection brought about in the minds
of all the people who are brought
into actual contact with its effects
and learn by experiment instead of
theory. He sees the downfall of
free trade and he would sacrifice
everything that is promised the
south rather than see his crazy
theories overturned. He snarls at
Henry Grady's great speech and
ridicules such expressions as "new
south" and "new era," and boots
at progress and development. Mr..
Watterson writes himself down a
traitor to the south. Because the
results are the exact opposite OF
his predictions and the actugl ex=
detrimental knowledge of the effects
Of protection disprove his vaporings
and is converting the people to the
correct view, be goes mad and
runs amuck with adjectica and ex-
pletive, denies the facts aud would
reverse them if he could. He makes
himself silly.

THE PULASKI CITIZEN
We Thank Our Friends.

Monday was big day in The
CITIZEN office. We renewed sub
scriptions by the dozens and we
had many kind assurances of APP
probation. We are sincerely CRATE
full to the people of Giles. Since
we got it The CITIZEN has never
missed an issue nor to be in time
for the mails-it has missed mails
but not because 1t was behind. Last
week the railroad strike caught our
paper in transit and we barely had
enough for a half sheet. Only one
man in Giles expressed any dissat-
isfaction. THE CITIZEN has gone
on without variableness or shadow
of turning and it starts the 29th
year of itsoMeCord regime with eve
ry assurance of the most prosper
Gus year and the biggest list it ever
had. Our Talmage sermon feature
and our Birmingham maSket fea
ture are strongly commended. They
are worth many times the subscrip

to help US enforce this rule-it il
best all round.
